A great tool to use to make cabinet, recommend it!

I bought the angle clamping jig thinking this came with it. The jig was useless without this right angle piece. I actually use this thing constantly without the jig because it is large yet not cumbersome like my carpenter square. Use it to set 90 degrees on all things just about so I bought a second one.

The 8" x 8" x 1 1/2" Rockler Assembly Squares were the next size larger than what I had intended. However, after using them, I am glad for this size, as well as buying two. My application is building model buildings (for model RR). I have used traditional hobby-size "Squares" for this purpose. While I could get a 90-degree joint when gluing, say, two walls together, they would sometimes fall out of plumb. With the Rockler Squares, the 1 1/2 inch depth gives more of a vertical surface to keep the joint plumb. Plus, by using two of them (with the corner nestled between) gives a firmer pressure. I used a small spring-loaded c-clamp to gently hold the Rockler's together. One other nice feature is that there is a small "indent" on the inside corner. So, any glue that weeps out of the corner joint does not get unintentially glued onto the Rockler.By the way, the Rockler clamp is rigid and well-constructed. Get two of them .

This clamp up square is useful for assembly and gluing. It's plastic and has some flex, it's not good for forcing something into place. It has several clamping possibilities which are nice to have, particularly using the special Rockler clamps. Complaints about the piece not being perfectly square are correct. It's good enough for most glue-ups, but I improved it by carefully sanding it on a perfectly flat piece of 1/4 plate glass. 180 grit self adhesive sandpaper did the trick without much effort. When lapping the square, it's obvious what the problem is: there is flashing, uneven shrinkage as the plastic is molded and the 2 halves of the die didn't line up very well. I did not try to sand it completely flat- just enough to take down the high spots and make it check square against a combination square. I ignored the dimples and small low spots. I lapped all 4 surfaces.

Built a display cabinet with my step son for his turntable, speaker and such. Used this in combo with Rockler Clamp-it Corner Clamping Jig to get 90 degree corner joints. The piece turned out really nice.

A really simple tool, one that you'd think would be more commonplace. I honestly just use it as a square because it's nice and thick, allows me to set it down in angles and stays upright. Pricey, but I don't suppose it will wear out anytime soon

I put these squares to work right out of the box to build some base cabinets. They are wonderful and the size is perfect for my project. They are sturdy, although I would not attempt to use them for something larger than cabinet making as they may flex a bit with heavier pieces. My only problems is that I don't have more of them. Will order 4 more soon.

I have to say, the only real reason I bought this item was for its price. Now that I have it, I can't believe how useful it is. I seem to be using it all the time when I am glueing things up that need to be at 90 degrees. I can clamp it to the workpiece to support an item while tightening pocket hole screws, I can clamp it flat to a table to make a true 90 degree area to join up two pieces of wood. I have 4 of these and I have to say that I am really supprised how often I use them. Great buy.
